[0040] Embodiment 1 Combination Figures 1 to 9 As shown, the present application provides a drill pipe with a welded wear-resistant structure, comprising a drill pipe body 1, a designated middle area L3 of the drill pipe body 1 is provided with a wear-resistant structure, the wear-resistant structure comprises at least one wear-resistant belt 2, the wear-resistant belts 2 are arranged in sequence along the axial direction of the drill pipe body 1 around the outer surface of the drill pipe body 1, and each wear-resistant belt 2 is in a circular ring shape or a spiral shape; each wear-resistant belt 2 comprises a group of welds, and each weld in each group of welds is in a circular ring shape or a spiral shape. When the group of welds comprises multiple welds, the multiple welds are arranged adjacent to each other, and the multiple groups of welds are formed simultaneously by laser cladding welding.
[0041] In addition, each wear-resistant belt 2 includes a base layer structure and a surface layer structure; the base layer structure is connected to the outer surface of the drill pipe body 1, and the surface layer structure is connected to the corresponding base layer structure; the base layer structure includes at least one base layer, and at least one base layer is arranged on the outer surface in layers in a direction away from the outer surface; the surface layer structure includes at least one surface layer, and at least one surface layer is arranged on the base layer structure in layers in a direction away from the outer surface, and the width of the surface layer gradually decreases in the direction away from the outer surface; each base layer and surface layer are respectively formed by welding through a laser cladding process.
[0042] In combination with the above-mentioned embodiments, a drill pipe with a welded wear-resistant structure in this embodiment includes a drill pipe body 1, which can play a role in supporting and transmitting torque. The wear-resistant structure is arranged on a designated middle area L3 of the drill pipe body 1, and the designated middle area L3 is a part of the drill pipe body 1 that is easily worn during the drilling process, which can improve the wear resistance of the drill pipe body 1 during use, prevent the drill pipe body 1 from being worn through, and thus extend the service life of the drill pipe body 1. The wear-resistant structure includes at least one wear-resistant belt 2, which surrounds the outer surface of the drill pipe body 1 and is arranged in sequence along the axial direction of the drill pipe body 1, so that it can effectively cover the area of the drill pipe body 1 that is most susceptible to wear, and can fully protect the drill pipe body 1 from wear during the drilling process.
[0043] Furthermore, the shape of the wear-resistant belt 2 can be selected according to the stress conditions of the drill pipe under different working conditions, for example, it can be annular or spiral. When the wear-resistant belt 2 is annular, it can provide circumferential wear protection for the drill pipe body 1, and when the drill pipe rotates, it can ensure that the degree of wear in all directions is relatively uniform. When the wear-resistant belt 2 is spiral, it can provide better wear protection when the drill pipe moves axially or simultaneously moves axially and rotationally, and due to its spiral structure, it can also guide the flow of materials such as drill cuttings to a certain extent, avoiding excessive accumulation on the surface of the drill pipe, thereby further reducing wear.
[0044] Further, each wear-resistant belt 2 includes a group of welds, and each weld in each group of welds is annular or spiral. When the group of welds includes multiple welds, multiple welds are arranged adjacent to each other, and the edges of every two adjacent welds overlap each other, which can reduce the probability of virtual welding, thereby improving the welding quality. Multiple groups of welds are formed by laser cladding process welding at the same time. Through the laser cladding process, a strong combination can be formed between the welds and the drill pipe body 1 and different welds. When the weld is annular, it can provide continuous wear protection for the drill pipe in the circumferential direction to prevent local wear on the surface of the drill pipe during the screwing process. When the weld is spiral, while ensuring wear resistance, the spiral structural characteristics can also be used to disperse the force when the drill pipe moves axially, avoiding local stress concentration, thereby improving the overall durability of the drill pipe. At the same time, multiple groups of welds are formed simultaneously, which can ensure the consistency and uniformity of the welding process and avoid structural deformation or stress concentration problems caused by multiple welding.
[0045] Furthermore, each wear-resistant belt 2 includes a base layer structure and a surface layer structure. The base layer structure is connected to the outer surface of the drill pipe body 1, and the base layer structure includes at least one base layer, and at least one base layer is arranged on the outer surface in layers in a direction away from the outer surface of the drill pipe body 1. The base layer structure can enhance the bonding strength between the wear-resistant belt 2 and the drill pipe body 1, and prevent the wear-resistant belt 2 from falling off the drill pipe body 1 during use. Since the base layers are arranged in layers in a direction away from the outer surface, each layer of the base layer can reinforce and enhance the bonding force of the next layer, thereby ensuring the stability of the entire wear-resistant structure. The surface layer structure is connected to the corresponding base layer, and the surface layer structure includes at least one surface layer, and at least one surface layer is arranged on the base layer structure in layers in a direction away from the outer surface, and the width of the surface layer gradually decreases in a direction away from the outer surface, which helps to optimize the force distribution of the wear-resistant structure. During the drilling process, the wear of the drill pipe surface often starts from the outermost layer. The design of gradually decreasing the width of the surface layer can make the wear-resistant material of the outer layer better withstand wear, and as wear occurs, the surface layer of the inner layer gradually plays a role, thereby extending the overall service life of the wear-resistant structure. At the same time, this structure also helps to disperse the external wear force to the surface layers at different levels, avoiding failure of the drill pipe due to excessive local wear. Moreover, each base layer and surface layer are welded by laser cladding process, which can accurately control the depth and width of welding, ensure the quality of each layer, and form a good connection between each layer and with the drill pipe body 1, thereby further enhancing the connection reliability between the wear-resistant structure and the drill pipe body 1, and avoiding the wear-resistant structure from falling off during drilling.
[0046] In a possible embodiment, the length range of the designated middle area L3 is positively correlated with the deflection of the drill pipe body 1 during operation, and the number of the wear-resistant belts 2 is positively correlated with the length of the designated middle area L3. The size of the designated middle area L3 is determined according to the overall length of the drill pipe. Generally speaking, the longer the length of the drill pipe body 1, the larger the range of the corresponding designated middle area L3. During the drilling process of the drill pipe, the drill pipe body 1, especially the middle part of the drill pipe body 1, will bend to a certain extent (i.e., the deflection of the drill pipe body 1) due to the centrifugal force. The longer drill pipe body 1 is more bent than the shorter drill pipe body 1. For example, when the length of the drill pipe body 1 is 10 meters, the range of the designated middle area L3 may be set within the area extending 1 meter to each end based on the midpoint of the drill pipe. If the length of the drill pipe increases to 20 meters, according to the proportional relationship and actual working conditions, the range of the designated middle area L3 may be expanded to about 0.5 meters to each end based on the midpoint. The size of the designated middle area L3 is also determined according to the rotation speed of the drill rod. Generally speaking, the greater the rotation speed of the drill rod, the larger the range of the corresponding designated middle area L3. During the drilling process, the greater the rotation speed of the drill rod, the greater the centrifugal force on the drill rod body 1, especially the middle part of the drill rod body 1. The bending degree of the drill rod body 1 with a higher rotation speed is greater than that of the drill rod body with a lower rotation speed. By determining the appropriate length of the designated middle area L3 according to the overall length and rotation speed of the drill rod, it is possible to meet the actual operation requirements, reduce the wear of the drill rod body 1 during the operation, and extend the service life of the drill rod body 1.
[0047] In a possible embodiment, the range of the designated middle area L3 in the drill pipe body 1 is 2 meters to 3 meters, and the number of the wear-resistant strips 2 is an even number and they are symmetrically arranged in the designated middle area L3 of the drill pipe body 1 .
[0048] In a possible embodiment, the wear-resistant structure includes a plurality of wear-resistant belts 2, and each wear-resistant belt 2 is in a circular ring shape, and a first preset spacing L1 is set between the plurality of wear-resistant belts 2. Theoretically, the smaller the first preset spacing L1, the better. When the first preset spacing L1 is infinitely close to zero, the plurality of wear-resistant structures form a whole, which can play the best wear-resistant role. However, in practice, the cost and construction period need to be considered. The size of the first preset spacing L1 needs to be designed according to the cost of the product and the time limit for completion, so that it can meet both the qualified wear resistance requirements and the cost and construction period requirements.
[0049] In a possible embodiment, the first preset maximum distance The first preset spacing L1 is selected from a range of maximum values according to the dogleg degree of the drill pipe during drilling and the weld thickness of the wear-resistant belt 2. The maximum value of the first preset spacing is With the following relationship: ; in, Represents the maximum value of the first preset spacing L1 of multiple wear-resistant belts 2; R represents the radius of curvature corresponding to the dogleg degree; t represents the weld thickness of the wear-resistant belt 2, and the weld thickness of multiple wear-resistant belts 2 is the same. The wellbore is not always straight downward during the drilling process, and it often bends due to geological conditions, drilling technology and other factors. The dogleg degree is a quantitative representation of this degree of curvature. The unit of dogleg degree is usually degree / 30 meters, which refers to the spatial change angle of the wellbore direction within the 30-meter well section length. For example, if the direction of the wellbore changes by 5 degrees in a 30-meter well section, then the dogleg degree here is 5 degrees / 30 meters. It can be seen from the above relationship that when the weld thickness of the wear-resistant belt 2 is a constant and the greater the dogleg degree, the smaller the first preset spacing L1. This is because the greater the dogleg degree, the more severe the wellbore curvature. In order to ensure that the wear-resistant belt 2 can effectively adapt to the wellbore curvature and provide good wear-resistant protection, the first preset spacing L1 needs to be reduced accordingly to ensure that at the wellbore curvature, the wear-resistant belt 2 can still evenly disperse the friction and other forces acting on the drill pipe body 1, reduce the wear risk of the drill pipe body 1, and ensure the safety and stability of the drilling operation.
[0050] In a possible embodiment, the wear-resistant structure includes a plurality of wear-resistant belts 2, and each wear-resistant belt 2 is spiral; each wear-resistant belt 2 is arranged with equal pitch and the pitch of the plurality of wear-resistant belts 2 is the same, and the pitch is determined by the direction of the tensile stress and the dogleg degree of the drill pipe during drilling. From the perspective of the direction of the tensile stress on the drill pipe body 1, when the drill pipe is operating underground, different working conditions will cause the drill pipe body 1 to be subjected to tensile stresses of different directions and magnitudes. For example, during vertical drilling, the tensile stress is mainly distributed along the axial direction of the drill pipe body 1. During directional drilling, the direction of the tensile stress will change with the change of the wellbore trajectory. The change in the direction of the tensile stress will affect the force condition of the wear-resistant belt 2, and then affect the setting of the pitch. If the direction of the tensile stress is relatively stable, the pitch of the wear-resistant belt 2 can be relatively large; if the direction of the tensile stress changes frequently, in order to ensure that the wear-resistant belt 2 can effectively disperse the stress, the pitch needs to be appropriately reduced.
[0051] In a possible embodiment, multiple wear-resistant belts 2 are separated by a second preset spacing L2. Theoretically, the smaller the second preset spacing L2 is, the better. When the second preset spacing L2 is infinitely close to zero, multiple wear-resistant structures form a whole, which can play the best wear-resistant role. However, in fact, the cost and construction period must also be considered. The size of the second preset spacing L2 needs to be designed according to the cost of the product and the completion time limit, so that it can meet the qualified wear resistance requirements and meet the cost and construction period requirements.
[0052] In a possible embodiment, the maximum value of the second preset interval The second preset spacing L2 is selected from the range of the maximum value according to the dogleg degree of the drill pipe during drilling and the weld thickness of the wear-resistant belt 2. The maximum value of the second preset spacing is With the following relationship: ; in, represents the maximum value of the second preset spacing L2 between multiple wear-resistant belts 2; R represents the radius of curvature corresponding to the dogleg degree; t represents the weld thickness of the wear-resistant belt 2, and the thickness of multiple wear-resistant belts 2 is the same. It can be seen from the above relationship that when the weld thickness of the wear-resistant belt 2 is a constant value and the greater the dogleg degree, the smaller the second preset spacing L2. This is because the greater the dogleg degree, the more severe the wellbore curvature. In order to ensure that the wear-resistant belt 2 can effectively adapt to the wellbore curvature and provide good wear protection, the second preset spacing L2 needs to be reduced accordingly to ensure that at the wellbore curvature, the wear-resistant belt 2 can still evenly disperse the friction and other forces on the drill pipe body 1, reduce the wear risk of the drill pipe body 1, and ensure the safety and stability of the drilling operation.
[0053] In a possible embodiment, the thickness range and width range of the wear-resistant strip 2 are determined in the following manner: According to the drill pipe's own strength, its own wear resistance and the force information of the drill pipe during drilling, the overall strength and overall wear resistance of the drill pipe with welded wear-resistant belt 2 are determined; the overall strength is not less than the drill pipe's own strength and the overall wear resistance is greater than the own wear resistance; Taking the overall strength and overall wear resistance as constraint conditions, the thickness range and width range of the wear-resistant belt 2 are determined in combination with the material and welding process of the wear-resistant belt 2 .
[0054] In combination with the above embodiments, different materials of the wear-resistant belt 2 have different properties such as hardness, wear resistance, and bonding strength with the drill rod. For example, cemented carbide material is selected as the wear-resistant belt 2, which has high hardness and good wear resistance, but it is difficult to weld with the drill rod. The welding process is relatively simple when ordinary alloy materials are used, but the wear resistance may be poor. At the same time, the welding process will also affect the bonding quality of the wear-resistant belt 2 and the drill rod and the final overall performance. If the welding process is improper, problems such as cold welding and desoldering may occur, thereby affecting the use effect of the wear-resistant belt 2. By selecting different combinations of wear-resistant belt 2 materials, welding processes, thicknesses, and widths, it is determined that the reasonable thickness range and width range of the wear-resistant belt 2 meet the requirements of overall strength and overall wear resistance, so that the drill rod welded with the wear-resistant belt 2 can achieve ideal overall strength and overall wear resistance.
[0055] In a possible embodiment, each weld bead in a group of weld bead included in each hard-wearing belt 2 has the same thickness; the target thickness and target width of the weld bead are determined by the following method: The number of layers and the thickness of each layer of the wear-resistant belt 2 are determined according to the thickness range of the weld, the heat input of the welding tool and the welding process. The first number of layers of each base layer, the first thickness of each layer, and the second number of layers of each surface layer and the second thickness of each surface layer are determined by the laser cladding process. The target thickness of the weld is determined according to the first number of layers, the first thickness, the second number of layers and the second thickness. For example, by controlling the heat input of the welding tool and combining different welding process parameters, it is determined that the first number of layers of the base layer is 3 layers, the first thickness of each layer is 1 mm, the second number of layers of the surface layer is 2 layers, and the second thickness of each layer is 1.5 mm. The target thickness of the weld is thus calculated and determined, and the target thickness is the sum of the total thickness of the base layer and the total thickness of the surface layer, that is, the target thickness is 6 mm.
[0056] The target width of each layer of the wear-resistant belt 2 is determined according to the width range of the weld, the type of welding tool spot and the welding process. Different types of welding tool spots, such as circular spots and rectangular spots, have different effects on the width of the weld. For example, when using a circular spot for welding, the minimum width of the wear-resistant belt 2 is 19 mm, and the target width needs to be greater than or equal to this minimum width to ensure that the wear-resistant belt 2 can meet the actual wear resistance and force requirements.
[0057] In some embodiments, the thickness of the wear-resistant belt 2 ranges from 4.0 mm to 6.0 mm, and the width of the wear-resistant belt 2 ranges from 19 mm to 30 mm, which can better adapt to the complex working conditions of the drill pipe during the drilling process.
[0058] In some embodiments, the wear-resistant structure corresponds to a wear factor, and the wear factor is determined according to the application object of the drill pipe and the user's demand for the application object. Correspondingly, the wear factor of the wear-resistant structure is calculated by one or more wear-resistant belts 2 included therein. Among them, the wear factor includes a reference wear factor and a differential wear factor; the reference wear factor is calculated according to the contact pressure of the drill pipe when drilling under specified conditions in a simulated scenario; the differential wear factor is calculated according to the contact pressure of the drill pipe when drilling when the wear-resistant structure changes at least one parameter (contact pressure and material hardness) in the specified conditions in a simulated scenario; the contact pressure is obtained by measuring the drill pipe in the target area in a simulated scenario; the contact pressure corresponding to different time periods and / or different target areas is different.
[0059] The above parameters include contact pressure and material hardness. By comprehensively referring to the wear factor and various differential wear factors, we can fully understand the changes in the wear performance of the wear-resistant structure under different parameters, so that we can choose drill pipes with suitable wear performance according to different use environments. For example, an increase in contact pressure will increase the wear factor, and a higher contact pressure will aggravate the wear of the drill pipe. The increase in material hardness will reduce the wear factor, and the use of materials with higher hardness in the wear-resistant structure can reduce the wear of the drill pipe.
[0060] In a possible embodiment, the outer surface of the drill pipe body 1 is a circumferential surface, and when each wear-resistant belt 2 is spiral, the wear-resistant belt 2 surrounds at least one circumference of the outer surface of the drill pipe body 1. During the drilling process, when the drill pipe rotates, the spiral wear-resistant belt 2 can continuously and evenly disperse the friction and wear force from the surrounding medium, thereby avoiding local excessive wear.
[0061] In a possible embodiment, the base layer structure and the surface layer structure are formed by welding through a laser cladding process, including: Determine the welding materials, welding methods and welding parameters of the base layer structure and the surface layer structure respectively; Determine the welding path of the welding tool according to the preset shape of each wear-resistant belt 2, and control the welding tool to weld in sequence along the welding path to form a base layer and a surface layer in sequence; The base layer formed by welding has at least one layer and surrounds at least one circumference of the outer surface, the surface layer formed by welding has at least one layer and surrounds at least one circumference of the outer surface, and the width of the surface layer decreases in the direction away from the outer surface.
[0062] The wear-resistant belt 2 composed of the base layer structure and the surface layer structure prepared by the above-mentioned laser cladding process is firmly combined with the drill pipe matrix due to the reasonable selection of the base layer and the surface layer materials, the optimization of welding parameters and the precise control of the welding path. The special structural design of the surface layer further improves its wear resistance, improves the wear resistance of the drill pipe, helps to reduce drilling costs and improve operating efficiency.
[0063] In a possible embodiment, the welding parameters are determined by the following method, including: The welding parameters are determined according to the thickness and heat input of the hard-resistant belt 2. Hard-resistant belts 2 of different thicknesses require different welding strengths and penetration depths to ensure welding quality and the performance of the hard-resistant belt 2. By determining the parameters according to the thickness, the welding parameters can be accurately determined to avoid problems such as insufficient welding (such as weak bonding) or excessive welding (such as burn-through, excessive deformation) caused by improper parameters. At the same time, the welding parameters are also determined according to the heat input, which helps to accurately control the heat-affected zone during the welding process, avoid the increase of the heat-affected zone due to excessive heat input, and then reduce the structural performance of the drill pipe body 1.
[0064] The welding parameters include welding power, linear speed and powder feeding amount; the welding power includes base layer power and surface layer power, wherein the base layer power is pre-adjusted to match each base layer power, and the surface layer power is adjusted based on the base layer power. The adjustment includes increasing or decreasing the base layer power within the set range, and the setting range is less than 1kw. The linear speed of the drill pipe body 1 is 15~30mm / s, and the powder feeding amount to the drill pipe body 1 is 1.5~2.5g / s. The base layer is directly welded to the drill pipe body 1, and the welding quality of the base layer affects the stability of the entire wear-resistant belt 2. The accurately set base layer power can ensure a good combination of the base layer and the drill pipe body 1, avoid defects such as unfusion and slag inclusion, and facilitate the subsequent surface layer welding process. In addition, the surface layer power is increased or decreased based on the base layer power within a set range of less than 1kW. This adjustment method not only ensures the correlation with the base layer welding parameters, but also can be flexibly optimized according to actual conditions (such as surface quality requirements, material properties of the wear-resistant belt 2, etc.). The smaller adjustment range ensures the stability of the welding process and will not cause welding defects due to excessive power changes. At the same time, the surface layer welding effect can be finely adjusted to meet different usage requirements, thereby improving the overall welding quality of the wear-resistant belt 2.
[0065] The linear speed of the rotation of the drill rod body 1 is 15-30 mm / s, which can ensure the stability and continuity of the welding process, and is conducive to uniform welding along the outer circumference of the drill rod body 1, avoiding problems such as shallow weld depth and discontinuity due to too fast speed, or overheating of the weld and coarse grains due to too slow speed, thereby ensuring the welding quality of the wear-resistant belt 2. In addition, the powder feeding amount of the drill rod body 1 is controlled within the range of 1.5-2.5 g / s, which can ensure the stable supply of welding powder during the welding process, and the appropriate powder feeding amount is matched with the welding power and linear speed, thereby improving the welding quality of the wear-resistant belt 2. In a possible embodiment, the power of the base layer is greater than or equal to 2.0KW. The number of layers of the base layer is at least one, and the thickness of each layer of the base layer is 0.8mm-1.2mm; the number of layers of the surface layer is multiple; the surface temperature of the wear-resistant belt 2 formed by welding does not exceed 200°C, and the melting depth of the outer surface does not exceed 2mm.
[0066] In a possible embodiment, the base layer of the wear-resistant structure corresponds to a Rockwell hardness, and the Rockwell hardness is correlated with the wear factor of the wear-resistant structure. The Rockwell hardness is a parameter reflecting the hardness of the wear-resistant belt 2 material, and the wear factor is a parameter reflecting the wear characteristics of the wear-resistant belt 2 material. Through the relatively easy-to-measure Rockwell hardness, the wear condition of the wear-resistant structure in actual use can be indirectly understood, so that the wear resistance performance can be more clearly predicted in the design and manufacturing stages.
[0067] Among them, the correlation between Rockwell hardness and the wear factor of the wear-resistant structure is determined in the following manner: according to the application scenario and application object of the drill pipe, the correlation between the Rockwell hardness and the wear factor of the wear-resistant structure in the wear-resistant belt 2 is determined; the correlation includes multiple combinations of multiple preset Rockwell hardness ranges and multiple preset wear factor ranges, and the number of combinations is equal to the product of the number of preset Rockwell hardness ranges and the number of preset wear factor ranges. Different scenarios and application objects have different selected correlations. Multiple combinations are made between multiple preset Rockwell hardness ranges and multiple preset wear factor ranges. Different scenarios and application objects can select a more suitable group from many combinations, so as to achieve better wear resistance of the wear-resistant belt 2 and adapt to diverse actual needs. The number of combinations is equal to the product of the number of preset Rockwell hardness ranges and the number of preset wear factor ranges, which provides a rich selection space for complex and changeable drill pipe use environments. Even in the face of some extreme or rare working conditions, it is possible to find a suitable wear-resistant structure through these combinations to improve the reliability and stability of the drill pipe under various complex conditions.
[0068] In a possible embodiment, the Rockwell hardness of the wear-resistant strip 2 is 40HRC-60HRC.
[0069] In a possible embodiment, the welding spot of the welding tool is a rectangular spot or a circular spot.
[0070] Embodiment 2 The present application also provides a method for welding a wear-resistant structure in a drill pipe, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Determine the first structural parameters of the wear-resistant structure and the second structural parameters of a single wear-resistant belt 2. The first structural parameters include the shape, quantity and preset spacing of the wear-resistant belt. The preset spacing selects the first preset spacing L1 or the second preset spacing L2 according to the shape of the wear-resistant belt 2. The second structural parameter includes the weld thickness. The preset spacing in the first structural parameter selects the first preset spacing L1 or the second preset spacing L2 according to the shape of the wear-resistant belt 2, so that the layout of the wear-resistant belt 2 can be optimized according to different shape characteristics. In actual applications, the stress conditions and wear-resistant effects of wear-resistant belts 2 of different shapes are different. By selecting a suitable preset spacing, the wear-resistant belt 2 can be reasonably distributed on the surface of the drill pipe, thereby improving the overall wear resistance of the drill pipe. In addition, the appropriate weld thickness can ensure the connection strength between the wear-resistant belt 2 and the drill pipe, prevent the wear-resistant belt 2 from falling off during use, and also ensure the strength and wear resistance of the wear-resistant belt 2 itself, thereby improving the service life of the drill pipe.
[0071] Step 2: According to the first structural parameter and the second structural parameter, determine the target welding tool and target welding method for the wear-resistant structure in the drill pipe. Different welding methods are suitable for different materials and welding requirements. Selecting a suitable welding method can ensure good welding between the wear-resistant belt 2 and the drill pipe body 1. At the same time, determining reasonable welding tools and target welding methods, such as using a laser welding gun and laser cladding welding method, and controlling the welding current, voltage, welding speed, etc. of the welding gun can further optimize the welding process, reduce the occurrence of welding defects, and thus improve the welding quality.
[0072] Step 3: Determine welding process parameters according to the first structural parameter, the second structural parameter and the multi-dimensional parameter information of the drill pipe, the multi-dimensional parameter information including: material information, structural information and welding performance. Determine the welding process parameters according to the first structural parameter and the second structural parameter determined above, so as to ensure that the welding setting of the wear-resistant belt 2 on the surface of the drill pipe meets the design requirements, avoid the situation of local excessive wear, and thus improve the overall wear resistance and service life of the drill pipe.
[0073] Step 4: Control the target welding tool to use the target welding method and weld the wear-resistant belt according to the welding process parameters to obtain the wear-resistant structure in the drill pipe, thereby improving the welding quality of the wear-resistant structure.
[0074] In some embodiments, when the wear-resistant structure includes a plurality of wear-resistant belts 2 and each wear-resistant belt 2 is in a circular ring shape, the plurality of wear-resistant belts 2 are set at a first preset spacing L1, and the second structural parameter includes a weld thickness; the first structural parameter of the wear-resistant structure and the second structural parameter of a single wear-resistant belt 2 are determined, and the weld thickness of the plurality of wear-resistant belts is the same. Wherein, determining the first preset spacing and the weld thickness includes: According to the maximum value of the first preset distance The relationship between the two is determined by the relationship between the two parameters, and the matching weld thickness is selected from the series parameter values according to the construction environment. Then, the matching first preset spacing L1 is calculated according to the formula. The relationship is as follows: ; in, represents the maximum value of the first preset spacing of the multiple wear-resistant belts 2; R represents the curvature radius corresponding to the dog-leg degree; t represents the weld thickness of the wear-resistant belt 2, and the weld thickness of the multiple wear-resistant belts 2 is the same. The size of the first preset spacing L1 is designed according to the cost of the product and the time limit for completion, so that it can meet the qualified wear resistance requirements and also meet the requirements of cost and construction period.
[0075] In some embodiments, when the wear-resistant structure includes a plurality of wear-resistant belts 2 and each wear-resistant belt 2 is spiral, the plurality of wear-resistant belts 2 are spaced apart by a second preset spacing L2, and the second structural parameter includes the weld thickness; determining the first structural parameter of the wear-resistant structure and the second structural parameter of a single wear-resistant belt 2 includes: According to the drill pipe's own strength, its own wear resistance and the force information of the drill pipe during drilling, the overall strength and overall wear resistance of the welded wear-resistant belt drill pipe are determined; the overall strength is not less than the drill pipe's own strength and the overall wear resistance is greater than the own wear resistance; Taking the overall strength and overall wear resistance as constraints, the thickness range of the wear-resistant belt is determined in combination with the material and welding process of the wear-resistant belt, and the weld thickness of the wear-resistant belt is determined from the thickness range; According to the construction environment, a suitable weld thickness is selected from the series of values, and then the maximum value of the first preset spacing is calculated according to the dogleg degree of the drill pipe during drilling and the selected weld thickness, and the first preset spacing is selected from the maximum value: ; Wherein, L represents the maximum value of the first preset spacing of the plurality of wear-resistant belts; R represents the radius of curvature corresponding to the dog-leg degree; and t represents the weld thickness of the wear-resistant belt.
[0076] The size of the second preset spacing L2 is designed according to the cost of the product and the time limit for completion, so that it can meet the qualified wear resistance requirements and also meet the requirements of cost and construction period.
[0077] In some embodiments, the second structural parameter also includes a pitch, and each wear-resistant belt 2 is set with the same pitch; determining the second structural parameter of a single wear-resistant belt 2 of the wear-resistant structure also includes: determining the pitch by the direction and dogleg degree of the tensile stress borne by the drill pipe during drilling. From the perspective of the direction of the tensile stress borne by the drill pipe body 1, when the drill pipe is operating underground, different working conditions will cause the drill pipe body 1 to be subjected to tensile stresses of different directions and magnitudes. For example, during vertical drilling, the tensile stress is mainly distributed along the axial direction of the drill pipe body 1. During directional drilling, the direction of tensile stress will change with the change of the wellbore trajectory. Changes in the direction of tensile stress will affect the force conditions of the wear-resistant belt 2, and then affect the setting of the pitch. If the direction of tensile stress is relatively stable, the pitch of the wear-resistant belt 2 can be relatively large; if the direction of tensile stress changes frequently, in order to ensure that the wear-resistant belt 2 can effectively disperse the stress, the pitch needs to be appropriately reduced.
[0078] In some embodiments, the second structural parameter also includes the thickness and width of the wear-resistant belt 2; determining the first structural parameter of the wear-resistant structure and the second structural parameter of a single wear-resistant belt 2 also includes: determining the overall strength and overall wear resistance of the drill pipe welded with the wear-resistant belt 2 according to the strength of the drill pipe itself and the force information of the drill pipe during drilling. Taking the overall strength and overall wear resistance as constraints, the thickness range and width range of the wear-resistant belt 2 are determined in combination with the material and welding process of the wear-resistant belt 2. Different materials of the wear-resistant belt 2 have different properties such as hardness, wear resistance, and bonding strength with the drill pipe. For example, the use of cemented carbide material as the wear-resistant belt 2 has high hardness and good wear resistance, but it is difficult to weld with the drill pipe, while the use of ordinary alloy material has a relatively simple welding process, but the wear resistance may be poor. At the same time, the welding process will also affect the bonding quality of the wear-resistant belt 2 and the drill pipe and the final overall performance. If the welding process is improper, problems such as cold welding and desoldering may occur, thereby affecting the use effect of the wear-resistant belt 2. By selecting different combinations of wear-resistant belt 2 materials, welding processes, thicknesses and widths, the reasonable thickness range and width range of the wear-resistant belt 2 can be determined while meeting the overall strength and overall wear resistance requirements, so that the drill pipe welded with the wear-resistant belt 2 can achieve ideal overall strength and overall wear resistance.

For those skilled in the art, the present invention may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
